Mine was also crumbly, but very flavorful! I was short an onion, so I only used one and chopped it kind of chunky. I grated my celery along with my carrots. I also assumed the cloves in question were garlic cloves. It was absolutely delicious! I'll make it again!

I didn't have any celery so used 1 bunch of cilantro for taste, 1/4 yellow pepper and 2 large button mushrooms for volume. I also subbed tahini for the peanut butter and it tasted great... although mine fell apart too! Next time I will try tossing everything into the food processor. Thanks!

this is yum! the first time we made it, it was very loaf-like, the second time it crumbled apart (still yum!) so make sure you mush it around really good and then pack it tightly into the pan. lentil loaf, smashed potatos and corn makes a great stick to your ribs meal
